Isaiah 25

KJ3 Literal Translation — Chapter 25 of 66

1 O Jehovah, You are my God. I will exalt You; I will thank Your name; for You have done a wonder: counsels from afar; faithful faithfulness.

2 Because You have made a heap from a city, a fortified city into a ruin; a fortress of foreigners from being a city, not to be built, to forever.

3 Therefore the mighty people glorify You, the city of the terrifying nations shall fear You.
